> Presently Digest authentication is based on MD5 - however we should either update the mechanism or add new mechanisms to support the use of stronger hashes.
> As this library is used both client and server side installations that require the stronger hashes can just ensure the client and server have the latest version of this library - installations that still require interaction with MD5 will need to ensure that it is still available as a mechanism.
